Dash and Dot – All ages

We think these are some of the best robots around for 4-8 year olds and even older children love them. Made by Wonder Workshop, they are controlled by your iPad (or Android) and are exceptionally tough and childproof. Battery life is reasonable – depends what you do but you should get about 45 – 60 minutes on one charge, which is going to be longer than your pupils’ concentration span!

They can also be decorated with stickers, sticky tape, glitter etc without any ill effects and wiped with a damp cloth (no, you can’t throw them in the washing up bowl!)

The full retail price is prohibitive – it ranges from about £140 to over £200. We have never bought one at this price. If you scan ebay everyday, you can usually pick them up brand new for much less. We have bought 5 sets altogether, all from ebay, and have never paid more than £79.
